*tap* *tap*... is this thing on?

[cellio]

I'm posting this from Dreamwidth, with hopes that it will also show up on LJ. Let's find out.

One of the things you can't import to Dreamwidth is memories. It seems I have rather a few of them. A lot of them are to organize my own content (in ways that are orthogonal to tagging). It'd be really spiffy if there were some way to take my LJ memories, find the corresponding entries on DW at least in my own journal, and create those memories on the DW side. Any ideas on how to do that?

As a baseline, I guess I can save each page of memories as HTML and edit them together into one page for local access. Or stick it on the web somewhere, or something. That at least preserves the information, though with LJ links.

Oh hey, tagging is different here on DW -- no auto-completions or drop-down list to choose from. Hmm.

On this smartphone in Firefox, Dreamwidth has auto completion all right, and it's a real PITA. I really should say, "has it all wrong". I mostly use the Swype + Dragon keyboard, and when I'm not dictating I prefer to use the swipe feature, dragging my finger from key to key of the world I'm trying to write. It's quite a bit faster then tap tap tap. BUT : if I don't finish the tag name really fast, stupid Dreamwidth completes it for me with whatever it thinks should be the rest of it. And it doesn't remove what it typed when I try to type the rest. so I get gibberish, one word in the middle of another, and correcting it is a real bitch on this teeny tiny screen.

Bleh. That sounds frustrating. Typing on a phone is already hard enough (I use Swype too). Sympathies.
